Changing the subject line for everyone’s benefit, if we are discussing RFC revisions :-) Bob, Russ: >> If RFC7437 is revised to include this, then that effort should consider the liaisons affiliations as well, not just the current and past chairs. > > Are the liaisons known from all bodies before the voting members are selected. I know that they have not in the past. Russ’ point is one of those considerations to take into account if we make a change. But in addition, I think there’s a strategic question of how far one wants the needle to go. What’s the right answer? I have not been in Nomcom, but I think there’s a difference in the roles of liaisons, voting members, and chairs. Is the right answer to consider just the voting members, voting members + chair, voting members + chair + ex chair, or all of that + liaisons? It is not clear to _me_ what the right answer is, but it might be worth discussing that through before worrying too much about the mechanics and ordering of events. Jari
